Automatically sort alignment by current tree

For the applet and application it is often useful to automatically sort the alignment view by a newly opened tree.

This could be an optional behaviour specified by a parameter on the applet, or a preference in the application. It should also be possible to override this behaviour in a per-view basis.

Requested by Albert Vilella (in 2009) with new refinements from Jim.

prototype parameter implemented in 2.5 applet release in 2009.
